This is so futile on so many different levels I can't stand it.
Of course the government is going to congratulate themselves on a job well done when they haven't done anything.
Cripes they just did this with the "Do Not Call" registry as well.
What cooks my noodle the most, however, is:
1. Slashdot thinks it's news. I feel like I'm getting poked with a stick here. 2. There isn't anything we could do about it even is we wanted to. and 3. If it's so trivial and "ridiculous" why did I just take the time and effort to respond to this nonsense.
Users can post system setups, industry news, blah, blah, blah.
I do enjoy seeing the/. thoughts on this subject as the PVR box is still in it's infancy. It's nice to see/hear what other people think and are doing aside from the tech forums.
Thanks CMDR I really appreciate. Slashdot is one of the last bastions of unspoiled geekism that I get to peruse on a daily basis. I've got the wife driving me crazy with Birthdays of second cousins that I've never even met. I'm going to showers for women I've never even heard about and now I've gotta worry about "Google's" frickin b-day too.
What'd my wife call you and tell you I don't have enough to do already. Just sneak in another birthday. I'm filling out the card and flowers now. Where do I address this to...
>you may now commence with the "I told your wife to stop calling me jokes"
Surfing is and always has been a purist endeavor. A place where minimalists plan their $8 an hour jobs around 12 hours of time on the water. Last time I was surfing, I didn't see a whole lot of yuppies or techies sporting the latest and greatest gear.
I find it difficult to believe that you will get any major proportion of the surfing world to buy into some motorized machine to offer any assistance in the enjoyment and satisfaction of a wave caught and ridden with perfection.
Personal satisfaction is all surfers crave.
That and tons of sex and pounds of pot. But who doesn't crave these things...
